Aaditya (Thackeray) has also said so. This issue is not merely about me. Such character assassination can take place with you people too,\u201d Thackeray said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"10\"\/>\u201cIf such allegations are made continuously, how long one should tolerate it? I am wondering why the names of Modi and Trump are absent in this case,\u201d he said sarcastically.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"12\"\/>Thackeray reiterated that Salian\u2019s death was an unfortunate incident and that his family had no connection with it, PTI reported.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"14\"\/>\u201cIt is politically motivated. We were quiet because an SIT was probing the case. Those who want to investigate, they can keep investigating. But enough of this pointless character assassination, or else we will initiate legal steps,\u201d the Sena (UBT) chief said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"18\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h3>Sanjay Raut backs Aaditya<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut on Thursday backed Aaditya Thackeray and said \u201cpeople trust the Thackeray family\u201d.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"21\"\/>The CBI registered an FIR in the 2020 Disha Salian death case, naming no accused, in compliance with Bombay high court directives on a petition filed by her father.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"23\"\/>Aaditya had claimed on Wednesday that some people were deliberately trying to link his name to the case to tarnish his character for political reasons.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"26\"\/>Raut said the CBI FIR was an attempt to malign the image of the Thackeray family.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"28\"\/>\u201cWe are ready to fight. He (Aaditya) is not alone in this,\u201d Raut said while responding to questions about Aaditya\u2019s claim that he never knew or met Salian, PTI reported.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"30\"\/>\u201cPeople trust the Thackeray family,\u201d Raut added.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"32\"\/>Raut also hit out at the Rane family, arch-rivals of the Thackerays, and said they should present any evidence related to Salian\u2019s death to the CBI.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"35\"\/>The Ranes have alleged a link between the Thackerays and the case.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"37\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h3>Aaditya denies knowing Salian<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>On Wednesday, Aaditya Thackeray had claimed that he had never met Disha Salian.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"40\"\/>\u201cI have never met or known Disha Salian. Linking my name to this tragic case is a deliberate, evidence-free attempt of character assassination by a few individuals with clear political and personal motives, for almost six years,\u201d Aaditya said in a post on X.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"43\"\/>Salian, 28, a former manager of Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput, died on June 8, 2020, after falling from the 12th floor of a residential building in Mumbai\u2019s Malad area.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"46\"\/>Police had claimed that it was a case of suicide.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"48\"\/>A week later, Rajput was found dead in his Bandra apartment on June 14, 2020, triggering speculation about a possible link between the two deaths.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"50\"\/>On September 2, the Bombay high court ordered a CBI probe into Salian\u2019s death while pulling up the Mumbai Police for failing to register an FIR for six years and observing that its investigation raised more questions than answers.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"52\"\/>(With agency inputs)<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a
